The Perth Mint unveils 2019 Australian Bullion Coin Program

The Australian Lunar Series II bullion program comes to a close with designs celebrating the Year of the Pig – the 12th and final animal represented in the Chinese zodiac.

Beautiful new reverse images of iconic Australian fauna appear on the classic Australian Kangaroo, Kookaburra and Koala series. For the first time, these coins feature Jody Clark’s contemporary portrait of the Queen, who is depicted wearing the Royal Diamond Diadem. Each of these coins also include a helpful security feature in the form of a micro-laser engraved letter within the reverse design.

Struck from 99.99% pure gold, 99.99% silver and 99.95% pure platinum, the Australian Bullion Coin Program is meticulously crafted by The Perth Mint, Australia’s global leader in precious metals.
